Grand Canyon Skywalk
David Jin, a Las Vegas based tour operator and entrepreneur who has been involved with the Hualapai Nation for some time, had the idea of extending a platform out over the edge of the Grand Canyon and formally presented the idea for the Skywalk to the Tribe in 1996 and funded the construction of the project. The original concept for the Skywalk design was a rectangular platform extending straight out over the rim of the canyon. That idea evolved into a “U” shaped walkway that has now been constructed.To get there from Flagstaff s -Pygmy Guides: Grand Canyon s, Hiking, & Camping - A Grand Canyon vacation can be many different things.

Grand Canyon
We believe that the winter is a beautiful season to visit the Grand Canyon. Always check trail conditions at any of the lodges before heading down the canyon. If the trails are icy or snowpacked just purchase a pair of crampons (the one that fits any size is the best because it doesn't come off, is also cheaper and work wonders) for your hiking boots and rent some poles from the Market Plaza Store in Grand Canyon and get ready to see a different view of the canyon.
Visit the El Tovar. Look at their gallery, they have unique jewelry and beautiful souveniers. Note: if you have a senior in your group then you he/she can get a life pass for $10 for any national park. More info

About the Skiwi school: The rate includes lift ticket, equipment rental, lesson & lunch.
Reservations are recommended so would advise you to call (928)
779-1951 x148;. Also, when
you check in you can request a helmet for extra $10; I would
recommend it.
